Lauren Rowles and Gregg Stevenson left it late to claim a thrilling Paralympic gold in the mixed double sculls as Great Britain won four rowing medals early on day four in Paris.

The pair's victory was sandwiched between GB wins in the men's single sculls and mixed coxed four while Annie Caddick and Sam Murray took silver in the mixed double sculls PR3.

Rowles and Stevenson, aiming for Great Britain's third successive Paralympic gold in the division, trailed Chinese Lius Shuang and Jijan Jiang with 100m to go in the 2,000m event.

Great Britain won five medals, including three golds, on the final day of track cycling at the Paris 2024 Paralympics on Sunday.

Great Britain had their most successful day at a Paralympic Games this century, with the 12 gold medals won on a super Sunday eclipsing the previous record of nine in a single day.

So much happened, in fact, we need two entries just to cover it all:

• Hannah Cockroft won her fourth successive women's T34 100m title to clinch GB's first para-athletics medal in Paris, before Sabrina Fortune broke the world record to win women's F20 shot put gold.
• Three golds were won at the velodrome on the final day of para-track cycling action in Paris, as James Ball won men's B 1000m time trial gold, Sophie Unwin triumphed in the women's B 3000m individual pursuit, and there was open team sprint gold for Jody Cundy, Jaco van Gass and Kadeena Cox.
• Three rowing golds were won by Lauren Rowles and Gregg Stevenson in the mixed double sculls, with further golds won by Ben Pritchard in the men's single sculls and the quartet in the mixed coxed four.

Is it past 2pm already? Monday is flying by.

We'll be building up to the action in the pool and the Boccia finals shortly, but let's have a look back at that triumphant Sunday for ParalympicsGB...

Alice Tai says she is "so proud" of her recovery from some of the "worst" moments in her mental health, prior to her gold and bronze medal success at the Paralympics.

The Poole-born 25-year-old won her first individual Paralympic title on Saturday and, after an emotional moment on the podium with her gold medal, Tai reflected back to the Rio Paralympics and the journey she has been on since.

In 2016, despite winning gold in the 4x100m medley, the swimmer revealed that it was one of her lowest points as she struggled with undiagnosed ADHD.

"I'm not going to lie, Rio sucked," Tai told BBC Sport. "My mental health was the worst it's ever been and I didn't want to be there, I didn't want to be alive to be honest.

"To have made such a recovery in my mental health and to have so much surgery over the last three years, I'm so proud of myself and so thankful to the team that support me."

Great Britain's Issy Bailey missed out on a place in the final of the P3 25m mixed pistol SH1 event, finishing 19th in qualifying.

She said: "I'm actually really pleased with today. I've been working really hard with my coach Sonal for about six months now and I'm absolutely certain that I would be smack bang at the bottom of that pile without her so I'm really pleased with what we've done today.

"Of course there are a few creases we would have wanted to iron out if we had more time but actually I'm really pleased with the work we've done and pleased with 80% of that match. I dealt with it so much better than I did previous matches in the last couple of years and definitely laid some of the ghosts of Tokyo to rest.

"I'm really pleased, finished with a smile on my face. To have family and friends here as well was a massive boost. It's been a really good day. Obviously I would have liked to finish further up the field but actually that's not the main takeaway from today. I'm really pleased overall."

The hooter goes at the Champ-de-Mars Arena and the Australian fans are celebrating in the stands.

A close game ends with Great Britain, winners of the gold in Tokyo, heading home empty handed.

Australia secure a 50-48 victory over GB to take bronze in Paris.

It might not be the gold medal that Great Britain are fighting for, but this game with Australian for the bronze is being contested just as furiously.

Unfortunately, the Tokyo champions are behind in the fourth quarter, as Australia are applying the pressure and have taken a 47-45 lead.

After a quick equipment timeout, Stuart Robinson makes it 47-46! Are we looking at overtime in Paris? Oooh, another shot try for the Aussies by Chris Bond makes it 48-46.

One minute remains...

What a Paralympics Great Britain are having! It's only day five and GB are second on the medal table with an amazing 25 golds, 14 silver and 10 bronze.

China lead the way with 38 gold medals while USA are in third on 11 golds.

Still plenty of medals to be won!

Hannah Moore won a bronze medal in the women's PTS4 behind Megan Richter, and afterwards spoke to Channel 4:

"I honestly can’t believe it. It’s been such a wild hard journey - seven years of hard work to get here."

On missing Tokyo: "With my classification not being in Tokyo and three or four years out of the sport with injury, illness and mental health, I just don’t know what to say.

"It’s wild and the crowds are nothing I have ever experienced before. It spurred me on.

"I’ve had a tough week here and was unsure about how today would go so to have won a medal means the world to me."

The time is ticking away in this third quarter and GB captain Stuart Robinson is trying to rally his troops after a few minutes after shaky play.

Robinson makes the steal and powers his side forward as Australia chase. The 42-year-old is a tough player to stop and the ball goes down to make the score 34-34.

Phew.

Megan Richter won gold in the women's PTS4 triathlon and afterwards spoke to Channel 4:

"I still in shock, I can’t believe that still happened. I worked so hard and so many people put everything into this. I’m so proud.

"Everyone in he team are so nice, it's so great to be a part of it.

"I had a plan just to go as hard as I could on the run and that's what I did."

At the moment, no-one.

The third quarter is under way at the Champ-de-Mars Arena and Great Britain's Stuart Robinson has just levelled the bronze medal match with Australia at 31-31.

ParalympicsGB's Will Bayley is safely through to the quarter-finals of the men's MS7 singles in Paris, after beating France's Stephan Messi in three straight games.

"I'm unbelievably happy," he said. "I was doing the things I find difficult really easily today. I felt like I could do a lot of things today.

"I was enjoying it. From the very first point I was right on it so it was one of those games.

"I've had some right battles against him but I was hitting the ball so well and I could tell that after the first three balls.

"I think he could tell that as well which I think changed it. I felt really good and he realised that and it’s hard to stick with me if I'm playing like that."

However, there was disappointment for Martin Perry and Paul Karabardak, who were both beaten in the last 16 of the men's MS6 singles.

Claire Cashmore and Lauren Steadman won silver and bronze respectively in the women's PTS5, and were talking to Channel 4:

Cashmore: "I'm feeling pretty good. Quite emotional today to see my parents and hearing that Dave (Ellis, her partner) also won. I'm really happy.

"I felt a lot of pressure in coming in this time. It means so much, that relief when you cross that finish line."

Lauren Steadman: "It literally took everything I had to be here today. I know it is a bronze but it means as much as a gold because of what it took to get here.

"19 months ago I wasn't here. I stood down and I didn't think I had it in me.

"It takes everything to be your best version and to fly the flag. I'm at my limit. I wasn't sure I was going to finish."

The wheelchair rugby bronze medal match has reached half-time and the whole arena needs to take a breather after an electric first two quarters.

There was no separating Great Britain and Australia in the first period and by the end of the second, the score is level at 22-22.

ParalympicsGB's Dan Bethell had to settle for the silver medal in the men's SL3 singles in Paris, after narrowly losing his final earlier today.

"It feels devastating, I came here for that gold," he said. "I got the silver in Tokyo and it was my ambition from the start to go one better but I just couldn't get it over the line today.

"The main game plan was that discipline is everything. Half court singles is the marathon event of Paralympic para-badminton as there isn't a lot of room to hit winning shots so that was the key thing.

"My coaches, credit to them, recognised that straight away and were telling me the whole way through but I couldn't execute it the way I needed to."

He added: "I never like losing, particularly in a Paralympics when I've already gone through losing a Paralympic final. But I've got to take some pride at getting through to the final as a lot of athletes dream of it and to get on that podium. But at the moment I'm just completely devastated that I'll be on the second step."

ParalympicsGB, external have provided us with an excellent stat.

Dan Bethell's Para-badminton silver in the men's SL3 singles final earlier was medal number 2000 in ParalympicsGB history.

Incroyable.
